Time Period: Faith's stillbirth
Lawrence's p.o.v
While placing Mason down in his crib for an afternoon nap, I hear Ivy's loud cries for help outside. She has been hanging up wet clothes on the dry line. I rush to her aid fearing there is a complication with the pregnancy. "Laurie, my water just broke. The baby is coming two months early" frantic, she alerts me. I carry her upstairs to our bedroom asap.
"Put me down on the floor" Ivy orders and I listen to her. Without warning me first, she begins squatting and pushing. I place a huge towel down between her legs. I hold another towel in prepation to catch our baby. I witnessed a woman, specifically my deceased wife Jo, give birth so I know what to expect.
